My son is 8 years old he has been taking Advair for about 3 years and he has leg pain all the time some times he gets up at night wanting something for the pain its so bad we have been to doctors and all kinds of stuff now they are sending us to childrens hospital to see a doctor for joint pain.they sent us to childrens hospital before my son was rolling his eyes and blinking a lot for about 2 and half years the doctors said he has tourettes and he doesn't thats another story (stupid doctors some of them) we
thought he may have a nervous problem or something because his dad works out of state and he misses him and maybe its
anxiety or something.And at night he
would grind his teeth so bad I thought he was going to brake one of them. And when I don't give him the advair at all that day he sleeps so good no teeth grinding , no waking up with leg pain no moving all over. My son is all most 9 and everyone things he is 5 I really think this stuff has did a number on my child I am going today to the Doctors again and telling them I don't want him on ADVAIR no more! MY son and my family has suffered to much over this stuff!

hey. its great to see that i am not the only person going mad with the side effects of the pill!
I started taking Yasmin in august 2008 and stopped in January 2009. after 2 months i found i had slight leg cramps and very itchy calfs and underarms that turned my skin into tiny red dots after i scratched them. i also got extremely red and blotchy inner thighs. the constant itchiness and the fact that i felt disgusting, made me go see my doctor who put me on yasminelle. ive been on yasminelle for about 2 weeks now. the itchiness has gone but i have major leg, foot and arm cramps. its hard to point my toes and sometimes difficult to stand or walk. extreme sore pins and needles in my hands and feet are also an issue.
i know side effects are different for everyone, but why are doctors still prescribing something that will give so much pain to people.
im finishing this pack of yasminelle and then stopping for good. i'm only 18 and my life's just beginning. im way too scared to take the risk of staying on the pill! if this is what its like after half a year, what is it going to be like after one year. or even more.

ive been on levothyroxine for about 6 years...... for an underactive thyroid gland and i am stunned reading all these side effects as for about 4 years ive suffered from severe joint paint, fatigue ,very low moods , foggy brain, mood swings hair loss, all i want to do is sleep and even then im still tired.
I am 35 and feel about 80 as my back hips legs calfs and feet all hurt so bad.
I have been to the doctors so many times and got no where.
ive been told your in pain because your depressed( who would not be depressed ) but i said i am depressed cause im in such pain.
i remember asking once if it was due to the thyroid or the drug and the doctor said your levels are fine and the drug gives no side effects.
I feel like stopping it right now to be honest.
I only got it after my third pregnancy and i remember reading once it can correct itself as it could be caused by pregnancy ????? any ideas.
ive copied and pasted a lot of these comments and i will be making a trip to doctors to be fobbed off again im sure ....but its worth a try

I just recently got my third vac. i had no obvious symptoms with the first 2. Now, only a few days after the first dose. I am so nausea but never to the point of throwing up. not yet at least. Reading the other stories has made me realize that gardisal is the problem. I have blamed all my other symptoms(irregular periods, dizziness, extreme fatigue, severe mood swings) on stress but it was always on the back of my mind that something wasn't right. I feel like i am a constant whiner and i feel like everyone thinks im just doing it for attention. I don't like to made to feel like that. A seriously regret not researching this vaccine. But doctors and nurses are there to help you, i would have never thought not to trust something that they are pushing all young girls to get. I am 19 years old and i feel like I'm going on 60. I don't want to miss out on the what should be the best years of my life. I feel for so many of these young girls and women. To have been enjoying life so much and to becoming a wallflower, never being able to stay out late, drink, party, a family reunion, even to just go shopping. It has made everyday of my life a trial.

I'm 16 and pregnant with a baby with Gastroschisis, and my doctor prescribed me welbutron for depression, I filled the prescription and didn't think anything of the fact that the bottle said Budeprion SR. I took it and 3 hours later I could barely hold my own head up, I was so dizzy and drowsy and had been strikin with the evil that is nausea. So I fell asleep and when I woke up I was a little shaky and I looked it up I'm going to the doctors on Monday and request to be switched to the actuall Welbutron. keeping in mind this was the first time I had ever taken them.

ive searched for this side effect all over the internet without success, because when i was prescribed propoxy after out-patient surgery..it was fine for the first week and dulled the pain considerabley...but after about 2 weeks of use there was blood in my urine and stool and my eyes and nose would drip blood every now and then...it still has gone un-explained, and my docter wont call me back .. i cant get a hold of my medical records at all either...this is becoming a serious issue and some one needs to explain to me why im bleeding from numerous cavities in my body...i still bleed even though i have stopped taking propoxy for a month now...im starting to get scared because no docters will take my story seriously...
if anyone has side-effects close to mine post a messedge so we can stop being neglected by docters!!

There should be warnings about this! The doctor should have told me that this could happen..it is not worth what we all have been through!! sorry just venting.
